June 26, 201214 yr Here we go... Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA Minnesota has agreed to trade the 18th overall pick in Thursday's draft to Houston for Chase Budinger, league sources tell Y! Sports. Wait. Chase Budinger is not only still in the NBA but is worth a 1sr round pick??? :lol:

June 26, 201214 yr Author Not really sure what Houston is trying to do. Some say they are willing to go after Howard even though there is "not a chance" (From a source) he stays in Houston past this season.
June 26, 201214 yr Wait. Chase Budinger is not only still in the NBA but is worth a 1sr round pick??? :lol: Sounds perfectly logical to me. Good trade Minnesota, I'm sure this will work out well for you.
June 26, 201214 yr Not really sure what Houston is trying to do. Some say they are willing to go after Howard even though there is "not a chance" (From a source) he stays in Houston past this season. I say keep the three top 20 picks and get some really good young talent! Maybe trade up into a top 10 or something. This is a pretty talented draft class, so they are in a very good position right now. Trading Budinger for a first round pick was genius on their part. They basically got away with murder on that one, unless I'm missing something drastic in the details.
June 26, 201214 yr Will Sullinger fall until the very bottom of the 1st? If so he could be the next Haslem type for the Heat. Also where is Darius Miller being projected? He is another guy if there I could see the Heat maybe taken, he also could a young version of Shane Battier for them.
June 26, 201214 yr Am I crazy for thinking D Miller is a safer pick high in the 2nd than TJones is in the 1st? Something about his game concerns me.
June 26, 201214 yr Not really sure what Houston is trying to do. Some say they are willing to go after Howard even though there is "not a chance" (From a source) he stays in Houston past this season. Morey is in a bad spot where they keep barely making or missing the playoffs b/c the owner wants to win now. He should go for Howard and hope they can get him to sign an extension. If he doesn't they will bottom out 2 years from now and he can start over with picks in the top 5. He's stuck in no mans land with that roster.
June 26, 201214 yr RT @DraftExpress: Green Room Invites: Davis, Robinson, Beal, MKG, Barnes, Lillard, Waiters, Lamb, Drummond, Rivers, Henson, Zeller, Leonard. Names must not be listed in draft order...otherwise Robinson would be 1st.

I don't think your crazy, shoot I have already said I think Miller will have the 2nd best NBA career out of the UK guys going pro this year. Which I think Miller would be perfect player for the Heat to take.
June 26, 201214 yr Author Am I crazy for thinking D Miller is a safer pick high in the 2nd than TJones is in the 1st? Something about his game concerns me. I think TJ will be OK in the NBA it will take him a while to adjust but I expect him to have a better career than Miller. I don't see him being anymore than a role player. Morey is in a bad spot where they keep barely making or missing the playoffs b/c the owner wants to win now. He should go for Howard and hope they can get him to sign an extension. If he doesn't they will bottom out 2 years from now and he can start over with picks in the top 5. He's stuck in no mans land with that roster. Agreed, they have been in the middle of the pack for a long time. If Howard isn't willing to stay I would keep the picks.
June 26, 201214 yr I'm probably wearing blue sunglasses but I really feel like Miller could have a good impact if he lands in the right situation. I think his game is going to transcend very well into the NBA.
June 26, 201214 yr R. Perez @World_Wide_Wob HOU has declined NOH's trade offer of the #10 overall pick for #14 and #16. Sounds like neither side sold on Austin Rivers. Nothing really at 10 that you won't be able to get at 14 or 16. This draft could be the Mogana of drafts, very busty.
June 26, 201214 yr Nothing really at 10 that you won't be able to get at 14 or 16. This draft could be the Mogana of drafts, very busty. Exactly what I was thinking. Anywhere past 6 or 7 picks, it's a crap shoot. It sort of evens out.
